Puerto Rico Day 4-Dec 12

Vieques is known for having a large population of wild horses. Turns out there were also a lot of Wilde horses. ha!
This was the road to the most fantastic beaches ever. Or some of them. This is why they only rent 4-wheel drive vehicles. And almost exclusively Jeep Whatever-we-had.
Totally worth the crappy road. We got to Orchid aka Secret beach and it was so nice. It even came complete with a few little huts. Shade! Somewhere to hang stuff!
Michelle fought off all those who tried to take our hut. (note: there was a few locals girls and their dog who came to surf and then a couple of couples who came later but further down the beach)
Family picture.
Family picture, silly faces. I had to bargain with Hazel to get her to take a nice picture.
I don't know why she is making this face.
Michelle on the cliff. True Fact: Geoff was also taking a picture of Michelle at this location and time, but from the other side of the cliff.
More handstands were done.
I don't remember what else we did. Ate some food, went to other beaches, played games, these are all possibilities, but I don't recall for sure.

Hands down, Orchid Beach was my favorite. I loved the little huts, I loved that it was at the end of a crazy road and when you broke through the foliage, bam! awesome beach. Plus, the fact that we were on Vieques during the low season, and thus never encountered many people didn't hurt.
